Black stripes on Hot Chocolate?

Has anyone gone for the low contrast look and put black sport stripes on a HC? I have seen some pics of the black bonnet stripes on HC. They have a little white outline that makes them stand out. It is a really good look.

If anyone has a HC with the sport stripes could you post pics? Thanks!!

I ordered the black racing stripes, but delivery is end of July though
I'm also thinking about these color rims with the HC color, think this might look good with the brown. Anyone else have rims this color on their HC mini?

Geoff - The rims would look sweet. Little highlights are the best IMHO. Post pics if and when you get them.

Sir - I think that would look great. I had black on hyper blue with white pins to set it off on my 06 Cabrio and really liked it. I am thinking a little more contrast with my HC/blk Clubman. Have chosen colors already, just need to get the stripes made and installed.

Geoff ... take a look at this thread for some great renderings of HC with Bronze wheels. I am still thinking to get the very same wheel you are looking at ... but like you, am waiting for someone else to pull the trigger first

Thanks Lurch, that's what I've been looking for. I actually might pull the trigger on this soon. Production week is next week .
